Benefits of technology

The invention allows the pump mechanism to operate in both directions without separating the pump rotor from the drive shaft. This feature is achieved through the use of a fastener that keeps the pump rotor connected to the drive shaft.

Problems solved by technology

A problem for biogas producers such as BTA is that the biological waste feed collected for the biogas digester can be contaminated with inorganic materials.

Embodiment Construction

[0068]Referring to FIG. 1, a broad overview of an organic waste treatment system 100 in accordance with an embodiment of the invention will first be provided. Following this overview various sub-components and features of the system will be described in further detail.

[0069]Overview

[0070]Organic waste treatment system 100 includes a comminution unit 102, a pump assembly 104 (in this instance a component of the comminution unit 102), a holding tank 106, and a control unit 108 (again, in this instance, being illustrated as part of the comminution unit 200). The comminution unit 102 is connected to the holding tank 106 by a waste transportation line 110. The comminution unit 102 is also connected to a water supply by a water supply line 112 and to a power source by a power supply line (not shown).

[0071]Operation of the comminution unit 102 (and the various sub-components thereof) is controlled by control unit 108. System 100 also includes a communication device (in this instance part o...

Abstract

A comminution unit for an organic waste treatment system is described. The comminution unit includes a comminution means for comminuting organic waste; a funnel assembly for receiving the organic waste, the funnel assembly being positioned above the comminution means and including at least one inwardly angled section for directing organic waste to the comminution means; a pre-processing assembly being positioned in the funnel assembly and above the comminution means, the pre-processing assembly adapted to agitate and shred the organic waste; a motor for driving the comminution means and the pre-processing assembly about an axis of rotation; and a waste outlet positioned below the comminution means and via which comminuted organic waste is transported away from the comminution unit. The pre-processing assembly includes one or more arms extending radially from the axis of rotation.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to an organic waste treatment system.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Some types of organic waste treatment systems are operable to comminute organic waste into a slurry or pulp for transport away from the point at which comminution occurs. Such systems can be installed and used in any environment where organic waste is produced, for example, domestic and commercial kitchens, food courts, fruit and vegetable shops, hospitals, fast food outlets, clubs, bakeries, supermarkets, and suchlike.[0003]Examples of such units are described in PCT patent applications PCT / AU2004 / 001460 (international filing date 22 Oct. 2004) and PCT / AU2008 / 000685 (international filing date 15 May 2008).[0004]At a general level, such waste treatment systems operate by comminuting organic waste and adding water to form a slurry which is transported to a catchment area / holding tank or, in some instances, directly to a sewer or other outlet.[0005]By process...
